The Snorris for 82-91 is the best division and had the best sweaters. I mean, the Blues were the worst of the bunch so that’s saying something.

Bell never played for the North Stars while Takko played in a handful of gsmesfor the Coilers and had an assist. But the North Stars beat Edmonton in the Campbell Finals that year so I guess the trade was a win for Minnesota.
